I guess that doing my nails was pretty challenging as there were so many tiny pieces such as the little sequins and their tiny dots which i used instead of the fake diamonds which failed on me. It was also very stressful because some of the polish was thick and turned out bumpy when i put it on my nails. It became so thick at times it took forever to dry, which was annoying.

Can you see the birdie and the little bumble bee?

It took me a whole afternoon, which was rather annoying, but at least it didn't fail, right?

It wasn't as great as I had hoped, but I reckon it was still pretty cool because of all the tiny stuff I put on them :P I guess my choice of base colour wasn't the best as well, next time I might use the pink as the base and the blue/green as the second layer.

I didn't want my nails to be too bulky with 3D deco pieces (and school was starting soon and I'd have to take it off D:) so I decided to just use some fake diamonds and little shiny sequins and sequin dots.

Here's a little description of how I did these nails:

1. I first cleaned off any old nail polish from before

2. Used my trusty nail tools and tidied up my nails

3. Picked the nail polish I was going to use as the base (a pastel-y kind of blue/green?) and then applied it

4. Waited a long time for it to dry =_= (I killed a lot of applications because it took the nails so long to dry)

5. I used masking tape to cover the parts I didn't want my second layer of colour to go on, and then applied my second layer (a thick shiny pink nail polish) onto the uncovered parts. (Again, I killed a couple base layers with the masking tape because the base layer wasn't dry enough or was too thick and got stuck to the masking tape)

6. I then began doing the rainbow nails while the nails with the second layer of nail polish were drying

- First I drew the clouds with a little white nail polish on a tooth pick

- Then I used another tooth pick to draw on the colours of the rainbow

- After that I used another tooth pick to put on some big sparkle nail polish under the clouds as rain, and stuck on 3 little pale blue sequin dots from my misc. deco collection

2 nails done!

8. After finishing those 2 nails, the second layers of the other nails hadn't dried yet, so i just decided to stick on the nail stickers so they would stick better.

- I did my thumb first, sticking on a couple flowers, then using a tooth pick I applied some more sparkles from my nail polish, followed by 3 little dark sequin dots under the pink strip I had made, next to one flower.

- I did the same with the other flower, placing the sparkles and sequin dots on top of the pink strip this time.

- After, I spread some more sparkle nail polish and 3 more little pale blue sequin dots on the pink strip.

- After some time, I also stuck on a couple more nail sticker flowers onto my nail because it had looked a little plain and empty.

10. After that, I stuck on a medium sized light blue sequin for the birdie's body, followed by a smaller one for it's head. I stuck on a little fake diamond(?) piece for the eyes and with a tooth pick and some nail polish, I drew on the beak, wings and the tail.

4 fingers done!

11. The nail on my pinkie was covered with a thick layer of nail polish which looked dried on the top, but in actuality, it was very much wet in the middle (hence the bumpiness :P). I had not realised until I was half way done, and had accidentally jammed the tooth pick through the polish D:
- First I stuck on the flowers, applied some sparkle nail polish near the flowers and stuck on 3 pale blue sequin dots on the pink strip.
- After I drew on the bumble bee with a toothpick and some nail polish
